the ability of a system to reproduce loud sounds free of distortion; dynamic headroom
The number of decibels by which a system exceeds the minimum defined requirements The benefit of headroom is that it reduces the bit-error rate (BER), and provides a performance 'safety net' to help ensure that current and future high speed applications will run at peak accuracy, efficiency and through-put
The extra space above one's head so that there will not be a problem walking around The extra signal room in an electronic circuit to prevent slight over levels from being clipped and distorted
For Single Girder Cranes Vertical dimension of the hoist from the saddle of the hook in the raised position to underside of bridge cross girder For Double Girder CranesVertical dimension of the hoist from the saddle of the hook in the raised position to top of hoist
The amount of additional signal above the nominal input level that can be sent into or out of an electronic device before clipping distortion occurs
The vertical distance from the lowest point of the ceiling or soffit directly above the stair to the nose of the stair Most code require 6' -8", (80 in), (2 03 m), (203 cm)
A term used on road signs warning of low overhead clearance Headroom is the space available above the road surface before hitting a solid object (like a bridge)
The ability of an amp to go beyond its rated power for short durations in order to reproduce musical peaks without distortion This capability is often dependent on the power supply used in the design
the capacity of a system to reproduce loud sounds without distortion vertical space available to allow easy passage under something
The amount of additional signal above the nominal input level that can be sent into a module before clipping distortion occurs
The capacity of a device above its normal operating level in which it can permit peaks to pass undistorted
In composition, the space between a subjects head and the upper boundary of the frame
1) The level difference (in dB) between normal operating level and clipping level in an amplifier or audio device 2) A similar level difference between normal tape operating level and the level where the distortion would be 3%
The distance between the bottom of the beam flange and the lower hook or the distance between the bearing surfaces of the upper and lower hooks at high hook position
Headroom is the amount of space below a roof or bridge. The forecabin, with 6ft headroom, also has plenty of room to stand and get dressed
The difference between the bulk voltage and the output voltage in a linear series pass regulator See also DIFFERENTIAL VOLTAGE
The difference, in decibels, between the peak and RMS levels in program material
The difference between the normal operating level of a device, and the maximum level that device can pass without distortion Music generally has wide variations in dynamic range; without enough headroom, you'll find your gear clipping (distorting) far too frequently! There are a variety of other places where it is desirable to have large amounts of headroom (i e when mixing signals together); in general the more the better!
Also referred to as clearance Refers to the total distance from a floor to the nearest obstruction above
This equates to the difference between a CREST member's Cap, i e the credit they have available and the net CMA balance, i e the cash movements from that day's activities
- Expressed in dB, the difference between the highest level present in a signal and the maximum level an audio device can handle without noticeable distortion
